39817 southwest georgia

Received a post card from Dish in the mail today. Telling me to call customer service. My dish antenna needs to be repointed because some programming is moving to a newer satellite. Called tech support and the person had no idea of what I was talking about... Anyone else get this postcard or...

I have a vip 211k, top 120 package, am hooked up to an OTA antenna, and have an external hard drive. I have been reading the threads about "moving" to gain access to different local channels. Still trying to figure it out. My zip code is 39817 which I assume puts me in the Tallahassee, Fl...

Thanks guys for the info. Was just curious whether it would work or not as I am currently rewiring my home theater setup. My old zenith 32" CRT HDTV ready TV does not have an ATSC tuner so I will hook up my tuner box to a separate input for the future just in case. TV, entertainment center...

I have a VIP 211K receiver with an activation pay as you go account. If I do not purchase dish programming for a month will I still be able to watch local OTA channels through the receiver? Brad

Matt. Dish system all installed and set up. Did software download and am ready for activation. Please help me get it working. I assume I should send you a PM with receiver# etc. So here it comes. Thanks, Brad

Wow guys, thank you Matt and Ice for the information. You have told me more in the last 2 hours than I have been able to glean from the internet and talking with dish csr's for the last week. I really appreciate your help. I now know where to go for information in the future. Once I get the...

Thanks Matt. Are there any ("reconnect/reactivate fees", etc.) when I don't use it for a month and then turn it back on? Can I manage my account online just like a customer under contract? Buy a different package whenever I want to? Please excuse my ignorance. I have never dealt with Dish...

Have purchased my own dish system: a new 211K receiver and a 1000.2 western arc dish from an online dealer. Have not received them yet. I understand that dish has a pay as you go or monthly prepaid service which I am interested in as I travel a lot and do not like paying for service when I am...

Thanks for the responses guys.... Mattv did you hook up and get your VIP211 authorized in the house first and then move it into the shop and connect to 2nd dish?

Correction to last post. Dish antenna is a dish 1000 with 3 lnb's. Not a dish 500. Sorry if that caused any confusion. Brad

Hi all, am a newbie to this forum and dish network as well. I have been using a Cband system since the good old days in the '80's so I am very familiar with TVRO systems from that standpoint. A month ago my dad had dish installed at his house. His system consists of a dish 500, and a vip222...

New Guy Hi All..... My name is Brad. Thanks for letting me join your group.:) I have been using a C-Band system since the late 1980's. Started out with a Drake ESR 1724 and then upgraded to a 4dtv DSR 922 about 1995. Always set up my own systems and moved them from house to house while I...
